Minnesota Vikings: 3 Bold predictions in Week 16 vs. Saints
1. Vikings don’t get the present of a win on Christmas Day
As mentioned in the previous slide, Minnesota won’t be able to keep pace with New Orleans by the end of the Week 16 contest and will be dealt a Christmas Day present of a loss on national television.
The Vikings offense has the ability to do well on the offensive side of the ball which could make things interesting and potentially a high-scoring affair in New Orleans, but it’s likely that the Saints defense will do enough and will string together enough stops on defense to allow the offense to take care of business and stretch a lead at home.
With that said, Minnesota will be the team that will see its losing streak continue, stretching to three in a row going into the regular season finale in Week 17.
The Vikings will drop the road contest against a top-notch NFC opponent on national television in Week 16, resulting in Minnesota moving to 6-9 overall and further up the draft order moving into the 2021 offseason.
The Vikings will aim to end the season on a high note when they travel to Detroit to battle the Lions in an NFC North contest in the final game of the year. But on Christmas Day, Minnesota won’t get the present of a win against New Orleans
